Scythian Metalwork Kit

Since the griffin--a mythological animal with the body of a lion and the head and wings of a bird--is said to possess protective powers, it's a good creature to have around. This metalwork version is based on a 2,600-year-old gold griffin in The Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the decorative box includes a plastic mold, two sheets of gold-colored metal, a rubbing tool, a stylus, a repoussé tool, and a foam pad.
